Task Force Assignments

By Lyle Hillyard
Utah State Senator, District 25

I think that we have really taken on some difficult tasks this interim with general task force assignments. Health Care Reform, Immigration, and Governance of Higher Ed and ATC’s are all worthy subjects but very complex and emotional.

With all House members running for re-election as well as half of the Senators, these task forces will be a serious time commitment for all committee members. I am sure the “advocates” will be following the meetings carefully but it is important that all Utahns become involved by attending meetings when possible and giving their input and suggestions by regular mail and e-mail to their legislators as well as those serving on one of these committees.

I sense that progress will require everyone to be willing to give up something for the betterment of the whole but these studies are really processes rather than immediate results. I believe the greatest challenge will be to see to the long term objectives and find the best path to achieve them.
